1202.41.80 - Other

This category, HTS Code 1202.41.80, encompasses "Other" peanuts that are not roasted or otherwise cooked, and are presented in their shells. This residual category is utilized when peanuts do not fit into more specific subheadings within the broader category of shelled or broken peanuts, nor into the more precisely defined sibling categories at this level. It's important to note that the "in shell" designation is crucial here, distinguishing these from shelled or broken varieties.

The primary distinction of this category lies in its "Other" designation. Unlike sibling categories such as 1202.41.05, which pertains to peanuts entered under specific general note provisions, or 1202.41.40, which relates to peanuts entered under specific additional U.S. notes, this subheading captures all other in-shell, un-cooked peanuts that do not qualify for those specialized entries. Therefore, classification here hinges on the absence of specific qualifying provisions found in its siblings.

Within this "Other" category, two subcategories exist to further refine classification based on intended use. 1202.41.80.20 is designated for peanuts specifically intended for use as oil stock, implying a processing purpose for oil extraction. The remaining unclassified peanuts under the parent "Other" subheading will fall into the 1202.41.80.40 "Other" subcategory, serving as a final catch-all for any remaining in-shell, un-cooked peanuts that do not meet the oil stock criteria or the provisions of its direct siblings.
